Wyatt Scrapbook - Billy Jarrett

In November 2011, I purchased a scrapbook at an antiques mall in
Carson, California. The scrapbook is believed to have belonged to Laurine
Wyatt. I am transcribing the articles and documents contained in the scrapbook
with the hope that it may be of value to genealogists who may be researching
the individuals named.

“Billy Jarrett, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Jarrett, Nashville.

Notes:

Although I do not know whether it is this “Billy Jarrett,” I found
a William Jarrett, Jr., on the 1930 U.S. census with his parents, William and
Margaret Jarrett, in Nashville, Davidson County, Tennessee. He is reported as
being 2 and 11/12 years old and born in Tennessee. [Source: 1930 U.S. census, Davidson County, Tennessee,
Nashville, enumeration district (ED) 200, page 5A, dwelling 63, family 80, household
of William Jarrett; digital images, Ancestry

Archives and Records Administration microfilm publication T626, roll 2243.]

The name of the newspaper in which this photograph appeared and
the actualdate of publication
are unknown.

The relationship, if any, of Laurine Wyatt to Billy Jarrett or his
parents is unknown.
